I've been dating my cap for a year now, it started pretty casual since we both weren't pretty busy etc... But I feel for him and think he has too. I asked if he wanted to see other people he said no, and that he really cares about be, but I'm so confused because I have not met any of his friends. He introduced me to one of his siblings but not the other, nor his parents. I know he is closest to his sibling I did met but confused why he hasn't introduced me to the other. I remember him telling me his ex fianc? did not any of his family or friends until after he proposed. I have not introduced him to my family bc they are pretty dysfunctional and I can't really relate to them so Im scared they will scare him, ESP since he comes from a very different background and very stable family, but this is normal behavior for me, I'm just not sure if this is normal of a cap. We really get along and have said I love you to each other and he had let me know that the fact he fits me inhis schedule as much as he cans should indicate I'm not someone he is just having fun with, but I'm just not used to this whole detached unemotional behavior and not sure if this is just normal. Is it possible for me to get him to open up more if so how? His birthday is Jan 2, I know little about caps so appreciate the feedback u

Well, at this point its time to meet family. BOTH families - warts and all. Perhaps you should initiate by letting him meet yours. Surely, you've told them all about them? If not, he is feeling the same way you are and wondering the same thing. Wondering about the hold up and what you're trying to hide. If so, then he's prepared. Caps are pretty open minded, as long as you don't surprise us.

One angle is if his family is snobby (not saying they are), he may be protecting you.

From another angle, usually, we don't introduce family, is because we're not sure its going to last. But this scenario is usually only good for the first six months. Why introduce then it doesn't work out and he has to answer all kinds of questions.

I would start out by telling him you want to introduce him to yours and start a conversation that way. He will probably volunteer a lot of unsaid information that will clue you in. But, you should step up and introduce him first. If you have told him all about them, then he's got a mental image, and I'm sure the reality is a lot softer than that mental image.
